I will look closely at how I can incorporate it into the next draft of my rules.<br /><br />As an ex-member of the RCN I would have thought that a few extra model ships would be have been a totally acceptable addition to your collection!<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />BobRobert (Bob) Corderyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13109130990434792266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6933470253715910366.post-2247484414636863402015-02-01T20:01:30.157+00:002015-02-01T20:01:30.157+00:00That looks like a useful as well as enjoyable game...That looks like a useful as well as enjoyable game. <br /><br />Given the sorts of time and distance scales that appear to be involved, I would think that any ship not dead in the water might be able to carry out last minute evasive manoeuvres represented perhaps by a modified contested die roll. A successful attack could then be seen as deadly. <br /><br />I'm sure you'll find a good answer but if I find myself making little toy ships, I'll know which 2 bloggers to blame.<br /><br />Ross Mac rmacfa@gmail.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04053555991679802013noreply@blogger.com
